GATHA WALKING MEDITATION

        (From Thich Nhat Hahn to Ezra Bayda to Converging Paths)


Another form of walking meditation for walking the neighborhood, the halls,
the woods.

Relax and enjoy just walking…engage the senses…and silently repeat a verse,
or gatha, over and over.

Here is a suggested gatha:


When I walk…the mind will wander…

With each sound…the mind returns.

With each breath…the heart opens.

With each step…I touch the earth


…walk…wander

…sound…returns

…breath…opens

…step…earth


Repeat as you enjoy your walking meditation.
